軍方和承包商方都需要準備小并且有足夠權利的項目團隊。 （承包商方面的項目團隊有極高的自治權，則客戶方面的項目團隊也要有極高的自治權。）
3. The number of people having any connection with the project must be restricted in an almost vicious manner. Use a small number of good people (10% to 25% compared to the so-called normal systems). (Bureaucracy makes unnecessary work and must be controlled brutally.)
與項目有關的人的總數應該嚴格控制，使用少而優秀的人 （與傳統相比, 只要10%-25%的人）。（官僚主義會帶來許多不必要的工作必須嚴格抑制）
4. A very simple drawing and drawing release system with great flexibility for making changes must be provided. (This permits early work by manufacturing organizations, and schedule recovery if technical risks involve failures.)
必須提供一個簡單的圖紙設計和發布的機制，并且要能夠靈活的通過它修改設計。 （這樣能給工廠加工充分預留提前量，并且如果存在技術風險也可以預先準備盡量減少損失）
5. There must be a minimum number of reports required, but important work must be recorded thoroughly. (Responsible management does not require massive technical and information systems.)
報告越少越好，但重要節點和工作必須從始至終貫穿記錄。 （負責任的管理并不是意味著繁多的文檔報告）
6. There must be a monthly cost review covering not only what has been spent and committed but also projected costs to the conclusion of the program. Don’t have the books ninety days late and don’t surprise the customer with sudden overruns. (Responsible management does require operation within the resources available.)
每月都要做已花費成本計算和整個項目的成本估算，不要突然給客戶一個項目遠超預算的驚喜。 （負責任的管理包括在有限的資源內運作）
7. The contractor must be delegated and must assume more than normal responsibility to get good vendor bids for subcontract on the project. Commercial bid procedures are very often better than military ones. (Essential freedom to use the best talent available and operate within the resources available.)
認真篩選分包商，招標來的往往比軍方指定的好。 （在有限的資源內充分尋找和利用最好的）
8. The inspection system as currently used by the Skunk Works, which has been approved by both the Air Force and Navy, meets the intent of existing military requirements and should be used on new projects. Push more basic inspection responsibility back to subcontractors and vendors. Don't duplicate so much inspection. (Even the commercial world recognizes that quality is in design and responsible operations not inspection.)
